My mother passed away suddenly, while visiting me in Connecticut. It was extremely traumatizing for my family and me. We called on John for the transportation and creation services. John and his staff was kind, compassionate and professional at every step of the way with my step-father as he signed off on the documents and completed all the very difficult arrangements. Mom was cremated and would eventually make her way back to my home; however, I struggled with picking up her ashes. I never felt rushed, pushed, or like... read more

John and his staff at Wakelee Memorial are the beyond compare. Every detail from small to big were handled after our Mom's passing with the greatest amount of professionalism and compassion. The warmth and sincerity in all they do during the most difficult of times is a gift. Highly recommend.

Wakelee Memorial Funeral Home did an outstanding job handling my fathers funeral. John handled every detail. He was patient, kind, compassionate and thorough. He went above and beyond to make it special for my dad.

John took care of everything for us. He was there for us from the time of death (arranging for cremation and travel arrangements for the ashes) through the funeral and beyond. He is caring, kind, patient, thoughtful, thorough, detail oriented, and wonderful. The time that he took with my mother in law and sister in law was amazing. He took the time to make sure we were comfortable with everything that was happening and even checked in with us the day after the funeral. I would highly recommend using Wakelee Memorial Funeral... read more

John was amazing!! we had a open caskets for both my brother and my dad (they passed 4 short months apart) and he did amazing work! I couldn’t be more happy with his service. he made it as easy as possible. he didn’t want us to stress with everything that was going on, he thought we had enough on out plate, he let us grieve without the worries. My family and I are so happy with his services, so thank you with all my heart.

We want to thank John and his entire staff for their quick, thorough and compassionate care for our 96 year old mother after she passed on. More than just reasonable costs, I would recommend Walklee Memorial in such a trying time because they will take care of all your concerns and will deliver service as stated. Very grateful.

When my husband died his death took me by surprise; my children and I were devastated. At the hospital, I was not prepared on what to do next and the hospital staff at ICU were not very helpful. A nurse even told me to go home and think about it, but I could not leave my husband's side, the man who had loved me with all his heart for over 39 years. I needed to know he would be taken care of respectfully and with compassion. I did not make a mistake in selecting Wakelee Memorial Funeral Home. Late in the day, Wakelee Memoria... read more

Wakelee and Amy and John could not get more accolades. My father died out of town, and Wakelee made all of this smooth...whatever we wanted... and they responded to many texts within seconds. I cannot thank them enough.
